Operation and Maintenance
In order to maintain the operability of your window and to ensure security,
it is extremely important that these precautions be observed:
8
Do not subject the sash to
additional loads.
Do not leave sashes open in the
turn mode during strong winds.
Do not place any objects between
the sash and the frame.
Do not allow the sash to hit or to
press up against the window reveal.
Risk of Injury!
Risk of Injury!
There is a risk of injury by catching
one's finger or other body parts in
the opening gap. While closing,
do not grab between the sash and
the frame.
Where children or other endangered
persons have access to the window,
the sash is to be safeguarded
against turning. Install a child safety
lock or a key-lockable handle.
Euro Series Product Installation Guide
Operation and Maintenance
To maintain smooth operation of the hardware and protect
against premature wear and tear, greasing and oiling* of all
operation-relevant components in the sash and frame must be
done at least once a year. In addition, the individual screws
must be checked.
Possible loose screws or broken off screw heads must be
replaced immediately. The hardware may be cleaned only with
a soft cloth and a mild pH-neutral cleaning agent in a diluted
form. Never use aggressive, acid cleaning agents or abrasive
cleaning agents because they can permanently damage the
hardware.
*Use only acid free and non-resinous grease and/or oil!

Glazing Details
How to insert the glazing beads:
With glazing beads cut to mitre fix first the shorter
and then the longer glazing beads. Use a plastic or
rubber hammer. Tap lightly.
How to remove the glazing beads:
You can remove glazing beads using a sharp putty
knife. Start in the center with the longer glazing
beads, then proceed to the shorter ones. Place the
putty knife between the glazing bead rebate bottom
and the lower edge of the glazing bead and lift it.
Repeat the same procedure at short intervals until you
can remove it by hand.

Blocking guidelines
Function of the blocks:
1. Weight distribution of the glass pane to the sash-frame
2. Lasting adjustment of the sash-frame
3. Guarantees passability of the sash
4. Prevents the possibility of direct contact between the pane and the sash-frame
5. Ventilation possibility
Block Material:
Bearing blocks, spacing blocks, glazing blocks and glazing rebate inserts as well
as wedges must be of such a quality that they resist rotting. Their form should not
be altered by stress-load. Plastic (e.g. hard PVC) glazing blocks and wedges have
proved themselves acceptable.
Fixing the glazing blocks:
The glazing rebate inserts bridge the 3 mm height difference
between the base of the glazing rebate and the upper edge of
the glass bead receptor. Hereby blocking allows for an optimal
hold of the pane from behind. By bending up the ends of the
glazing rebate inserts (2.5 mm), it prevents the slipping of the
glazing blocks that lie upon it both during and after assembly.
The glazing blocks should be 100 mm long and, in general, a
minimum of 2 mm wider than the glass. All glazing rebate
inserts as well as glazing blocks should be permanently
secured against slipping; this can be achieved with silicone.
Slipped blocks lose their function and hinder other functions:
the sash can no longer be optimally opened or closed or the
block is in front of the drainage block.
After blocking the glass pane (see blocking guidelines) the
glass beads must be inserted.

out based on the experience of each glazer. Weight and load

PROFILE SYSTEMS
Blocking procedure:
• Begin blocking by laying the block down horizontally on the
glazing rebate insert.
• The block thickness should total 6 mm (3 mm glazing
rebate bridge + 3 mm block).
• The glass pane is set on the bottom blocks and carefully
tilted into the frame.
• To avoid damaging the glass edges, special attention must
be paid to the glazing rebate space around the mechanical
couplers.
• The danger of glass breaking due to inward swinging of the
pane is especially high when inserting couplers at the top.
• Here the use of appropriate spacing blocks is
recommended. It must be carried out with special care.
